Soarin’ – but only if the standby line is decently short*
I’m not sure how Disney is planning to set up this attraction on Genie+.
I’m waffling back and forth about Tron. DD7 is tall for her age, but this momma still worries it’s too big of a ride for her.
The Haunted Mansion
For the parade, watch in in Frontierland. Still a lot of people but much less then the front/hub of the park. When we went last year to watch our kids and their marching band march in MK we watched right outside of I think it was Liberty Tree Tavern or the County Bears. There is a short rock wall that we sat on but no one was allowed in front of us and the wall kept people from being on top of us. Here a picture of where we were for reference. It is not the best picture but I hope it helps.I hope we’ll get to see some of the parade and fireworks, but somewhere out of the way. DD7 doesn't like the loud booms of the fireworks and I'm not a fan of crowds being too close to my personal bubble.
So this was kind of what I was thinking / afraid they would do. My number 1 priority is getting on this attraction, so if that means a VQ, I'll try for that. VQ or not, I will absolutely purchase ILL because to me it's going to be worth it. There will always be a special place in my heart for Splash, but I'm really looking forward to the re-theming. I have no doubt it will be a VERY in-demand ride.Given how they’ve handled other recent “new” rides (and also with the expected high demand), I’d be shocked if Tiana’s wasn’t a ILL attraction with a virtual queue. I think they’ll pull the ILL from 7DMT and perhaps pull the VQ from TRON - Tiana will be FAR more popular than both, especially in the short-term.
I’d aim to enter the virtual queue first and then purchase a ILL to give you a chance to ride twice. The queue will disappear very fast (perhaps in seconds like RotR used to) so you’d need to prioritize the virtual queue first. Then purchase your ILL for that attraction, followed by booking your first Genie+ selection.
I will, thanks! She seems to do better when she knows what to expect. I think it's the unknown that makes her anxious. YouTube ride videos have been helpful for sure.I’d continue watching YouTube - it’s made a world of difference in my daughter’s comfort and enthusiasm for multiple attractions.
I love this idea! That sounds like a great location for the parade, thank you!For the parade, watch in in Frontierland.

Awesome! I'm hoping by this day I'll have plenty of practice with Genie+ and LL selections .With ILL for Rise and G+ that’s a very reasonable list if you make your first selection at 7 am.
Mother daughter trips are so much fun and special. You guys will have a great time!
This makes me feel less anxious and more confident in my plans!With Genie + this is very doable. When we went over Easter last year (very high crowds) we were able to stack LL's to the afternoon (went on our arrival day and one other afternoon). I was able to stack them back to back. We didn't do ToT as that ride is not for me at all and I think RR was closed but I wouldn't ride that anyways. We were able to ride MMRR, Slinky, Toy Story Mania, Alien Saucers, Muppets and we split Star Wars between the two days. First night rode Millennium Falcon as a single rider (I used the chicken out line as I get sick on these rides). The second night we paid for the Rise LL.
My strategy was to get Slinky first and then MMRR and then play it by ear from there. Once I got the LL's I would modify them until I got the time I wanted in the afternoon.
I just booked 1900 Park Fare for some clients who are traveling in June. I was trying to time up their BBB, but couldn't get a morning time and since you have to pay for CRT at the time of booking, I didn't want to book that and then have to change it or wait for the refund, etc. I was able to book 1900 PF pretty easily though. There were a lot of times available. I have to preface it that my clients are staying off site and so they were at a disadvantage for booking already.BUT, just when I thought I had the final choice all planned out Disney goes and announces that 1900 Park Fare has reopened at Grand Floridian! The menu looks pretty good for both DD7 and me AND Tiana IN HER NEW BAYOU ADVENTURE OUTFIT (!!!!!) will be visiting guests! Oh my goodness I love all the choices but also it threw a wrench into the plan I already had a hard time deciding on.
I was doing some poking around and it seems like all the time slots from now until at least the middle of June are full. This worries me that I may not be able to get an ADR for 1900 PF.
Or as another option (if it something you can do), instead of CRT could you do 1900 Park Fare and Akershus? The characters are different at the 2 except for Cinderella, who seems to be at a lot of meals. If only doing one, I would almost say 1900 Park Fare as those characters are ones you may not be able to see in the parks (I think, It has been a year since I have been to Disney and several since the kids were little).
